So answer the question above, do you then lift the lid to check if it worked? Or do you believe your shit is magic, and makes all toilets work perfectly?
Sounds like that horror story about the wife seeing the dude wipe once and be done with it saying that he’s never had to wipe more. She requested he do it again and he came back with another huge ass streak.
Homie, we all leave some gross shit now and then but dude above preaches when you have people in your house who dump floaters and streakers constantly. Nothing worse than opening the bathroom door to know you’ll be greeted with a gross ass half dissolved usually green tinted floater with half the bowl streaked and everyone acting like it wasn’t them. Meanwhile you end up having to try to piss blast it for a week but it’s so caked on by that point you actually have to take the extra 30 seconds to use the toilet brush…
Often the problem isn’t really the fault of the last person who shat. It can be the kid who used way too much TP the night before and clogged the pipes. Or in our case it can even be one of the upstairs apartments, but that’s a real disaster.
One of the things I won’t miss about my last apartment (which was overall pretty fantastic) was how the plumbing was under-built when they constructed the otherwise overbuilt building back in the 60s or 70s.
This meant that on my end of the building, all 4 apartments (mine, the other one on my level at the end of the hall, and the two above us) all shared the same undersized drainage piping.
I was there 6 years, and averaged about 1.5 horrific backups per year that required a call to management, who had to come out, try to fix, then give up and call professionals (and twice in that 6 year span, the professionals even gave up and had to call in even more capable professionals).
In every case, I always asked them if there was anything I could be personally doing…or not doing…that might help.
In each case, the plumbers always said I was doing everything I could, even above and beyond considering the more capable drain filters I used on both sink and tub, and that the real issues were the long hair from the ladies in all 3 other apartments (not a criticism on them, just an observation that many of the clogs were long hair, vs my buzz cut), and in a few of the worst cases, flushed hygiene products (which prompted a mass email from the landlord that these things were not to be flushed, both feminine hygiene stuff and “flushable wipes”)…and in the worst backup, the two young girls in the family above me had flushed a wash cloth.
That last one was the worst by far. Had disgusting, chunky shit water/gray water cocktail backing up into toilet AND shower.
I’m going to continue to pretend it works lol.

My friend, you either take some massive shits worthy of awe, or you’ve got a bad toilet if this is a regular issue for you.
I shit in the same toilets with enough consistency to know they do the trick without further investigation.

Lolol I also own a bidet, regularly clean, and apparently eat more fiber than some of y’all. 😂
No doubt I’ll have some worse than others, but I assure you I’m not coming back to no bio hazards after one flush.
